Drug and alcohol rehab facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the challenges to treatment.
Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
